I forgot mention Jehovah's Witnesses, truly a religion for working-class morons.

I couldn't agree more. The LDS church I grew up near were the most cold-blooded, short-sighted, money grubbers I was ever aware of.

I realize that growing up in northern AZ I was just not directly exposed to a lot of the other horrid Christian groups. But I was shocked many times by their behavior.

Small town power and especially money drove(drive) everything. I still have enough contacts including family to be very aware it's not changed. From the 1978 prophet revelation that women are people too (albeit with a different 'calling' ), to banning caffeine while owning Pepsi, and so on down the line. They had(have) a self-perpetuating we-want-to-own-it-all culture that is incredibly disgusting.

Update -- Sorry. I think I misspoke. I think the 1978 prophet revelation was dark skinned folks are people too rather than women. They don't treat either group very well.

@RichCC you are so right! No caffeine until the church bought PepsiCo. I lived in Salt Lake City and saw the hypocrisy. There are Mormons (mor-money) and then there are the jack-Mormons. They love you until they figure they can’t convert you then they hate you. I think they accepted black people when Carl Malone (basketball) married one of their white girls. No you might be right about 1978 and women. People of color was somewhere in the 80’s.

Have they picked out their planets yet? To join heavenly mother and father? ? rolling

No they’ll ride this out just like they did with people of color...who were considered Satan’s children by the LDS and shunned. All about the money.
